Description:

There were a few early negotiated fed cattle sales in Nebraska Monday at $122.50/cwt., but too few to trend. Live sales there last week were at mostly $123.

Cattle futures closed higher, buoyed by firmer outside markets and oversold conditions. There’s also the most open interest in Live Cattle for at least nine months.

Live Cattle futures closed an average of 76¢ higher (37¢ higher at the back to $1.27 higher in spot Feb).

Feeder Cattle futures closed an average of 98¢ higher.

Corn futures closed fractionally mixed.

Soybean futures closed mostly 1¢ to 2¢ higher.

Wholesale beef values were steady to firm on moderate to fairly good demand and moderate offerings, according to the Agricultural Marketing Service.

Choice boxed beef cutout value was 23¢ lower Monday afternoon at $214.28/cwt. Select was 55¢ higher at $208.21.
